Chestnut Hill Plumbing Spotlight: Kitchen Faucet Design Trends

The kitchen faucet must be both functional and beautiful. Kitchens are one of the busiest rooms in any home: cooking and cleaning requires lots of water.  We need faucets that work well and that look great.

Increasingly, modern design is having an impact on kitchen faucet design.  Chestnut Hill homeowners, like much of the nation, have embraced the clean lines and bold color of modern design. The peaceful, clutter free, simple style is soothing when the rest of the world is being particularly chaotic.

This year, one of the strongest trends in kitchen faucet design is for the squared or angled faucet.  Rather than delivering water along a long and shining graceful arc, these faucets feature an abrupt almost 90 degree angle.  It’s a look that balances nicely with the trend toward open horizontal shelving as kitchen storage space. Vaguely space age without tipping too far toward the Star Trek visual ethos, the look shines in chrome finishes.  Brushed nickel is also popular, and of course, you can’t have kitchen faucet finish options that don’t include stainless steel!

Chestnut Hill Faucet Replacement

Kitchen faucet replacement can be a do-it-yourself job, but unless you’re a skilled handyman and comfortable trusting your home’s operation to your own abilities — and sacrifice what scarce free time you have to doing the job! – you’ll want to call your Chestnut Hill plumber.

Your Chestnut Hill plumber will remove the old faucet and install the new faucet, water supply lines, and all associated fittings. A new faucet can make your kitchen sink more functional. A leaking kitchen faucet can waste a tremendous amount of water. You would not believe how much water you can lose from a dripping faucet – and when you pay for every drop, that adds up quick. Having your Chestnut Hill plumber repair your kitchen faucet or replace it with a new faucet will save you money!
